The Trumpet Blows

About the Item

Original US film poster for the 1934c drama directed by Stephen Roberts and starring George Raft, and Adolphe Menjou. This poster was printed by Leader Press this was an Oklahoma City printer that had a solution to poster distribution in the early 1930's. films that had been shown in major cities and them moved to smaller towns had to have the posters sent with the film print. However the posters would arrive damaged. Leader Press created their own version of the studio's posters. These could sent a few weeks in advance of the films showing. These posters also cost much less than the studio posters. The film studios allowed Leader Press to do their own designs but they could not show the studio logo or the credits just the Title. This is a very rare poster and the only one I have seen for this film in over 30 years. This poster is conservation linen backed and it would be shipped rolled in a very strong tube and sent by Federal Express.
